About This Audiobook
Angela Toussaint is finally ready to return to the Washington state house where her family's tragedy unfolded two years earlier, the house her grandmother treated as a place of healing magic, and where Angela's son Corey may have accidentally awakened something dormant and deadly. The investigation into what is happening in Sacajawea draws her into the community's history of loss and the entity her grandmother spent her life opposing, with help from people on both sides of the living and dead divide.
Robin Miles gives the novel the full register of horror, family grief, and African American spiritual tradition that Tananarive Due brings to all her work. Her narration understands that the horror here is inseparable from the love: Angela's vulnerability comes from caring about the people she might lose, and Miles communicates that emotional logic at every turn. The audiobook's long runtime lets Due's Atlanta Georgia and Washington State settings develop into fully realized places where supernatural threats feel genuinely plausible.
